Gu Xiyue raised her hand to take the small medicine bottle that Ling Piaomu handed over.
The tiny bottle was transparent, small enough to be completely covered by a palm, containing white medicinal pills inside.
Seeing that Gu Xiyue had taken the medicine bottle, Ling Piaomu then turned her gaze toward Jiang Qi.
When Ling Piaomu looked over, Jiang Qi eagerly said to her, "Mumu."
Ling Piaomu rolled her eyes silently, quite disdainfully responded, "Don’t call me that, it makes me sick."
"You say she’s destroyed your Ancient Martial Arts, so why didn’t she just kill you outright?" Ling Piaomu’s tone was tinged with a hint of regret and disdain.
Jiang Qi looked at Ling Piaomu with a wronged expression and dared not speak.
"I added something extra to the medicine, remember to take it properly," Ling Piaomu said, leaning back on the couch leisurely as she spoke.
Jiang Qi, upon hearing this, grew a bit stiff, feeling that she hadn’t added anything good to it.
"It’s for the brain," Ling Piaomu said, giving Jiang Qi’s head a glance.
"I’ve kicked Ling Mufeng out of the group chat already, if you dare to add him back, I’ll kick you out too," Ling Piaomu said, giving him a fleeting look.
"He said he was your brother, acting as if he was quite close to you. He also mentioned that he’s treated the boss before, addressing her as ’Moon boss’. I thought..." Under Ling Piaomu’s deadly glare, he stopped speaking.
He had met Ling Mufeng not long ago at Gu Xiyue’s birthday banquet, which was the first time he met Ling Piaomu in person.
At that time, Ling Mufeng stood right beside Ling Piaomu and Gu Xiyue, appearing quite familiar with them.
Ling Mufeng introduced himself to him afterward, saying he was a psychologist who had treated Gu Xiyue and claimed to be Ling Piaomu’s brother.
Since both had the Ling surname and attended Gu Xiyue’s birthday banquet, he had no reason to doubt Ling Mufeng’s words and had always believed that he was Ling Piaomu’s biological brother.
Who could have thought that he was just a distant relative of the same clan?
According to Ling Piaomu, she had hundreds of such ’brothers’.
"You’re stupid for blaming others for deceiving you," Ling Piaomu said mercilessly while scolding Jiang Qi.
Jiang Qi shut himself off completely.
Not long after feeding Jiang Qi the medicine, he fell asleep.
Gu Xiyue and Ling Piaomu walked out of the sickroom together, and Ling Piaomu turned slightly to ask Gu Xiyue, "Isn’t your Green Tea Sister an ordinary person? How did she suddenly learn Ancient Martial Arts?"
Gu Xiyue shrugged slightly, indicating she was unclear too.
"Do you think there’s a chance that Jiang Qi has gone crazy, rather than Green Tea Sister suddenly learning Ancient Martial Arts?" Ling Piaomu proposed seriously, touching her chin.
After a silent two seconds and a pause, she turned to look at Ling Piaomu and spoke in slight agreement, "I wouldn’t rule out that possibility."
Ling Piaomu nodded lightly upon hearing this, "It must be like that."
She was more inclined to believe that Jiang Qi had lost his mind rather than someone suddenly mastering Ancient Martial Arts.
Seeing this, Gu Xiyue’s mouth twitched slightly, beginning to speak with a hint of helplessness, "It’s also possible that her Ancient Martial Arts were destroyed before and now they’ve recovered."
Thinking of Gu Huaijin’s reaction that night, Gu Xiyue felt that this was more likely.
Ling Piaomu fell silent upon hearing this, then after a while turned to look at Gu Xiyue, "But how could she know martial arts?"
"I’m quite curious about that too," Gu Xiyue admitted, narrowing her eyes slightly.
Seeing that Gu Xiyue had said nothing more, Ling Piaomu dropped her gaze in thought, and after a moment, she looked at Gu Xiyue again, "Yueyue, can you help me check her whereabouts?"
Hearing her request, Gu Xiyue suddenly turned to look at her, "What are you planning to do?"
